Leaf Necklace

And I mean, I can see why, they look pretty cool. So I
thought I´d make my version of them.

I honestly loved it. It is one of those things that look
simple but cute. The fact that is suuuuper duper easy to make is a huge plus.
The only thin, thought, is that I think I´m only attracted to it if its gold.
Maybe turquoise would look nice as well. But gold: cute.

As for materials, I used:

-Yellow clay.

-Leaf (from the street, literally, from the
ground, I would never ever EVER mess around with nature!).

-Knife.

-Roller. (I used Sculpey clay conditioning
Machine. Not a necessity, roller and even pressure works as fine).

-Ziploc bag.

-Water-based Acrylic painting in gold.

-Thin brush.

-Thin chain and two clasps.

Find Waldo! I took this one while recording the video below, thought it was hilarious to see how tiny my new piece looks!

Here is a step-by-step I made for this project:

Pretty simple, right?

Don´t forget to give it a try, and if you do, don´t forget
to end pics my way!
